Packers rookie RB MarShawn Lloyd avoids IR, makes initial 53-man roster

Green Bay Packers rookie running back MarShawn Lloyd avoided injured reserve and will start the 2024 regular season on the team’s 53-man roster.

Lloyd joins Emanuel Wilson as the two running backs behind starter Josh Jacobs on the Packers’ first 53-man roster. Veteran A.J. Dillon went to season-ending injured reserve, so Lloyd now has a terrific chance to be an impactful player for the Packers offense in 2024.

Lloyd, who missed the start of training camp with a minor hip injury, has been out for almost three weeks due to a hamstring injury suffered in the preseason opener.
